New Testament

Hebrews 9:1-5 New Century Version (NCV)

1. The first agreement had rules for worship and a place on earth for worship.

2. The Holy Tent was set up for this. The first area in the Tent was called the Holy Place. In it were the lamp and the table with the bread that was made holy for God.

3. Behind the second curtain was a room called the Most Holy Place.

4. In it was a golden altar for burning incense and the Ark covered with gold that held the old agreement. Inside this Ark was a golden jar of manna, Aaron’s rod that once grew leaves, and the stone tablets of the old agreement.

5. Above the Ark were the creatures that showed God’s glory, whose wings reached over the lid. But we cannot tell everything about these things now.
